Ambassadors are known for always being there to answer questions or offer guidance and assistance in your time of need. But that's a very small part of what we do. We're also here to help make your Wattpad experience the very best it can be.
The Ambassadors host various challenges and contests that are open to the community. Participation is a great way for writers to develop and find motivation for ongoing projects, or to celebrate in the experience of creating a new story.

The 8-Chapter Challenge runs every two months throughout the year on the justwriteit profile. The 8CC is the perfect motivator for writers who have a great story concept, or ongoing story, to find a reason to sit down and just write it. In the two months, you must write 8 chapters with a minimum of 1500 words each. That's 12k words!
The 30-Day Challenge runs monthly on the profile. The 30DC offers writers support and encouragement to write consistently for 30 days and at the end we celebrate your word count milestones. Come and write with the community!
